You step off the tram and the city immediately rearranges itself into a puzzle: narrow cobbled streets, terraces dropping to the Alzette, and baroque façades that keep their own stories. The game leads you through those arteries of Luxembourg City, asking you to read plaques, photograph clues and follow directions until a secret exit is found.
The route threads past ramparts and bastions built into local sandstone—remnants of a strategic stronghold that once controlled three river valleys. The story you chase involves Count Peter Ernst of Mansfeld, a historical figure whose life in the 16th century left traces in place names and fortification lore. Multilingual street signs and cafés reflect Luxembourg’s crossroads culture: French, German and Luxembourgish mingle, and locals move between tram, bike and foot.
Practically, this is a two-hour, self-guided urban escape that runs on your smartphone. You’ll receive login details and instructions by email, then activate the app when ready; there’s no guide. The route is mostly paved and wheelchair accessible in parts, but expect stairs in older sections and short uphill stretches. Teams of 2–4 work best—one ticket covers one team—and the app asks for photos and answers to riddles as you progress.
Bring a fully charged phone, sensible shoes, and a small power bank. Start early to avoid tour groups and use public transport to reach the historic center. Keep an eye on signage and local regulations; the game is immersive but respectful: you solve puzzles through observation, not by entering private spaces. Succeed within two hours and your team may earn a spot on the Wall of Fame.

The game is designed to be completed in about two hours. You can pause and resume on your team’s device, but your session time may vary depending on detours and breaks.
The route uses the city’s fortified past—Luxembourg’s ramparts and bastions were critical to European military strategy, and the Count Peter Ernst story ties into 16th-century civic life.
